Help Test Exciting All-New Slashdot "Banjo"

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the more-then-just-a-sea-monkey dept.

After far too long in development, Slashdot is ready to move to the latest version of Slashcode. To this end, we really need people to test our development box, aka Banjo. This is not a load test, so please don't beat the crap out of it (yet!). Please read comments, post comments, and test out wacky new features like Journaling and the assorted new messaging options. It is mostly identical but there are several cool surprises. We have many optimizations still to add, and only have a fraction of our "real" hardware on Banjo so don't worry about speed, instead look for things that don't work right (or at all!) and send those bug reports. (Known issues: imported comments are misattributed, and comment searching is disabled. Don't report these things please ;))
